You may have noticed that Donald Trump’s all-time favorite word is, “fantastic.”

“Mike Pompeo is doing a fantastic job.”

“Secret Service did a fantastic job stopping an intruder”

“I hope we (Putin and Trump) have a fantastic relationship.”

“Pakistan is a fantastic country, fantastic place of fantastic people

“(My) health care plan will be fantastic.”

Regarding the National Museum of African American History and Culture: “Honestly, it is fantastic“

“The relationship (with India) is going to be fantastic“

I think she (Betsy de Vos) is going to be a fantastic Education Secretary.”

“(I thought Angela Merkel is) really fantastic.”

“I saw Lady Gaga last night and she was fantastic!”

“Melania will be a fantastic first lady”

The list goes on and on. He seldom tells a lie without using the word, “fantastic.” I’ll bet you could find a couple hundred examples in short order.

But did you know the word “fantastic” has the original meaning: “existing only in imagination”?

It also comes from the French fantasieus, meaning “weird; insane; make-believe.”

Medieval Latin had fantasticus as a noun, meaning, “a lunatic.”

Old Italian had fantastico, meaning “one who acts ridiculously.”

My questions are, what if Donald Trump suddenly realized he is a weird lunatic who is acting ridiculously, so he apologized to America?

•Progressives think the purpose of government is to protect the poor and powerless from the rich and powerful. Conservatives think the purpose of government is to protect the rich and powerful from the poor and powerless.

“We said nothing. All we did was quote a certain very talented legal mind who was the one responsible for saying that on television.

“I didn’t make an opinion on it. That was a statement made by a very talented lawyer on Fox.

“And so you shouldn’t be talking to me, you should be talking to Fox.”

Understand? Donald Trump said he didn’t say what Donald Trump said.

He said a talented Fox lawyer said what Trump said, so don’t ask Trump about what he said, even if you read exactly what he said, because he didn’t say it.

Actually, Trump said a lot of things he didn’t say, like for instance, he didn’t say he grabbed women by the crotch. Even though you heard him say it, he didn’t say it. A talented lawyer at FOX said it.

And he didn’t say Mexico would pay for his beautiful wall, which is why he is asking Congress to pay $4 billion to build the wall, because he didn’t say Mexico would pay. That lawyer at FOX said it.

Press secretary Sean Spicer says President Trump still stands by his allegation that former President Barack Obama ordered wiretapping of Trump Tower, even though the intelligence community has found no proof that it happened.

Tomorrow, he once again will deny having made the statement, even though he will continue to stand behind it. And there are fools who voted for this con artist.
